I was skimming a post by someone who mentioned ringing in the ears. I have had ringing for months now, and it seems to be getting worse. Also, all of a sudden my ears seem blocked, especially the right ear, which has the worse ringing too. I went to the doctor, and she said she could see nothing in my ears. She prescribed an allergy medicine to dry my ears out, but it did nothing for me. I also have water/fluid draining from the right ear. I am attempting to see a specialist (my appointment is at the end of the week), but is ringing something that is a common kundalini symptom? I always assumed it was in my case, until the clogging and fluid drainging, so I am trying the medical route. Any thoughts?

Nada Yoga – A path of yoga utilizing naturally occurring inner sound (such as OM) as the object of meditation. Since the natural occurrence of inner sound may not be consistent at any particular time in a practitioner, or among any number of practitioners, the consistency and effectiveness of nada yoga will also vary widely. In the AYP approach, nada may be heard in the form of inner sounds and vibrations (particularly OM), often accompanied by blissful ecstatic energy flow. The advice in such cases is to favor the procedure of the practice we may be doing at the time, since it is the practice that is producing the experience. In the case of AYP, nada (inner sound) is effect rather than cause.

LESSON 264
The High "eee" Sound

Within the quantum level of consciousness there originates a vibration, a steady vibration, that can be heard with the inner ear as a high-pitched "eeeee," as if a thousand vinas were playing, as if all the nerve currents in the astral body, physical body and the body of the soul were singing in harmony. It is a divine combination of the ida and pingala tones blended together in the sushumna. Each lineage of gurus has embedded within the psyche of tradition a certain combination of sounds, and listening to this mystic sound holds all devotees close to their satguru and all those who preceded him. It is also said that when one is in another birth, the sound is the same, and this will eventually lead the aspirant back to his spiritual lineage. Listening to the nada, as it is called in Sanskrit, or nada-nadi shakti, brings the threshold of bliss and shows that the balance of all karmas has been attained. Listening to the nada and tracing it into its source carries the seeker's awareness to the brink of the Absolute. There are today mystical orders that do nothing but listen to the nada while looking at and enjoying the darshan of their guru's picture.

Many sincere seekers wonder why they cannot hear "eeeeee," the nada, during their meditation, whereas others not only hear it during meditation but during the day when talking, shopping or just meandering through the garden. This is to say, it is there when awareness enters that area of the mind. The mind has to be made empty. That means resolving all unresolved conflicts within the subconscious. The striving to hear the nada will bring up unresolved issues. They may plague the conscious mind until resolved. At first you might disregard them and feel they will go away as abruptly as they came. But later, when they persist, and the major one is deception -- yes, we can even deceive ourselves -- we are inwardly forced to face up to, admit our secrets and make amends. When deception goes, the nada comes. When the subconscious is heavy, the nada and the brilliant colors it radiates fade. Failure on the path puts the nada out of range of the inner ear of the soul.

The mystical nada, it's a medley of sounds, and each sound which is there has a color, but may be covered, as is the light of the mind of the soul, the clear white light. It is covered, but not permanently. Admittance of the mistakes, the experience of repentance and the performance of penance, called prayashchitta, lay the foundation for a reconciliation that will release the force of lower nature into the higher and uncloud the veil that hid the inner light, that hid the nada -- that incomprehensible high-pitched "eee," sounding within the head, that incomparable source of inner security, contentment and outpouring of love. When you hear the nada, endeavor to project it in love's outpouring to all those who are in your orbit of communication. They will feel the blessings when your divine love is projected through your nada into their nada. This is the height of selfless consciousness, universal love, a constant mystically outpouring and experience of oneness. The sushumna is nada and more. Nada shakti is. It just is.

The high-pitched ringing heard from within, however, is audible predominantly but not necessarily, from the right side of the head/brain hemisphere. But the inner sound originates from the Ajna or The Third Ear. It is directly resultant from honed concentration, as we engage in deepest meditation.
